"I want to make you my Medical Power of Attorney."

Eddie's words shocked Buck, in the hospital, hours after being saved from near-death.

"Eddie, what- what did you say?" Buck stared at him, eyes wide and weary and scared and curious all at once; he still had that fear lacing him whenever Eddie nearly died, like when he had been shot, although this time, it wasn't as bloody.

"I know you heard me," The words didn't hurt, they were fond, but Eddie was still serious with a look that made Buck swallow dryly, "I want you to sign the papers to make sure you'll choose what happens when I die."

"What brought this up?"

Buck knows what brought this up.

Eddie's brown eyes softened at the questions, "I nearly died, Buck. Again. Our entire little crew nearly did, even you. I got out with broken ribs, but that might not be the case in the future."

Buck stared at him, a whirlwind of emotions swirling through his head, yet his face was grim, "We nearly die a lot, huh?" His voice lilted, like he was sad.

Eddie subtly nodded his head.

"I trust my parents, but I trust you more. You're as much as my family as they are, but you're the one who would do what I want."

Buck hoped that he wouldn't keep going; he didn't want Eddie to keep talking about the ways Buck loved him without explicitly shouting it out.

Fuck. He loves Eddie.

Listen…

I KNOW this was the save Bobby season finale but Buck was such a HERO in this episode. Like I’ve never seen him be a firefighter’s firefighter like this before THEN he delivered a baby like UGH

WHAT A MAN

This was just the biggest reminder of how great he is!

Sadly Natalia & Marisol absolutely KILLED me bc it means another Buddie delay but I could barely bring myself to care because I loved Buck so very much!

Also, couch theory confirmed? But now he’s picking one out with her so idk….possible scary things to come

temptation tuesday/wip wednesday

i've been tagged in stuff the past couple of days by @usercowboy @swiftiebuckleys @buddiefication @madneysjee @gayhoediaz @wh0re-behavi0r so i decided i'm combining the two and giving you snippets from TWO (2!!) different fics wow!!

from 5+1 eddie dating fic:

Vanessa's...pretty.

She's tall and slender and she has a contagious laugh, and in another life Eddie thinks that...maybe. Probably. They'd have had a couple more drinks together, both letting go of their inhibitions. She'd probably have found some excuse to touch him, a playful swat, and Eddie would've turned up the smoulder. He'd have waited for her uber with her at the end of the night, wrapping his jacket around her. Then he would've locked eyes with her, a question speaking a thousand words as he leaned in, their noses brushing, but—

But Vanessa's not over her ex, she says. Her smile is pretty too, as apologetic as it is as she tells him you're a really nice guy, Eddie. Eddie thinks he should feel disappointed— hurt, maybe. At the fact he got dressed up so nice for someone to not even give him the time of day. But he doesn't. He just feels relieved. His shoulders drop as he downs the rest of his drink, and all he can think of is home and bed and Christopher's science project and Buck's lasagne and—

Eddie doesn't know what to do with all of that.

from 6x18 spec:

Opening his eyes is a feat in and of itself, feeling like there's weights on both of them. He blinks a couple of times, disoriented. He can't quite put his finger on why, yet, but everything just screams wrong. He tries to move past the pounding in his head to figure out what happened as he slowly sits up, coughing and spluttering as he looks around. They were on their way to the hospital, Chim was working on the patient—

Eddie's blood turns to ice instantly. Chimney.

"Chim!" Eddie shouts, a hoarse thing that's swallowed by a cough. He looks around frantically, the lack of light in the back of the ambulance serving to aid the nasty concussion he probably has brewing. A pained groan cuts through the air, making Eddie stop in his tracks. "Chim?"

"'m here." a quiet voice mumbles. "Can't get up though."

"Okay, alright, stay where you are." Eddie says, climbing over the medical equipment strewn on the floor. "Are you hurt?"

Silence fills the ambulance for a few seconds, an uneasy feeling settling in Eddie's gut. "Chim?"

"Eddie, I— hah, I'm bleeding."

"How bad?" Eddie demands, throwing miscellaneous medical equipment over his shoulder, nausea filling his gut as he sees a small puddle of red spreading across the side of the ambulance, a sick imitation of a work of art.

"I'd say pretty bad."

i'm not sure who's done it yet uhhhh @capseycartwright @trippedandfell @henswilsons @clusterbuck @burnthatbridge step up to the mic pls xxx

[mintedwitcher]

So. You're telling me that a 50+ year old man rolled down off the edge of a collapsed bridge, got trapped and pinned underneath a tonne of rubble including several concrete slabs, and did not break a single bone? Really? Dude got literally CRUSHED by CONCRETE and you're telling me he didn't break a SINGLE BONE? Not even one? Really? Really?

I'm not saying I wanted Bobby to be hurt. I'm saying... really? A fall like that, and getting crushed by debris, and no injuries? Just scrapes and bruises?

Anyway personally I think it would've made the parallel better if Bobby had broken a leg, because that's how he met Jeff (the earthquake kid) and it would've just been so perfect if they came full circle with Jeff saving Bobby with the same injuries.

!!SPOILERS FOR 9-1-1 SEASON 6 FINALE!!

Ok I think I've only ever retweeted about 9-1-1 but I have a few thoughts on the finale that I really wanna share. But - and I cannot emphasize this enough - I am in no way hating on the actors, crew or writers of 9-1-1. These are just my personal Amateur thoughts.

First and foremost I would like to say that I didn't hate the finale. There were several things that I really liked about it but I just have a few critics for the finale and the whole season 6B in general.

However, I want to give a balanced opinion so I will start with things I actually liked about it. So here are things I liked about the 9-1-1 finale 6x18 pay it forward:

• The football/soccer kid

Look I have really bad facial recognition, so initially I thought the guy paying for the football's team food was just a cute and sweet scene they added. So when the flashbacks happened, I thought it was such a nice callback to the season 2 earthquake. his character in general was just a good representation of the theme of the episode AND it was long enough ago to be a really nice scene for fans.

• Kameron, Connor, Buck and the baby

I'm really glad they didn't make the baby end up with Buck one way or the other. Buck being able to not just spend time with Kameron While she's pregnant but also delivering the baby yet still being able to give him up really showed his growth. Even though he teared up at having to give him up, he still did.

I think him delivering the baby was also a nice callback to the very first episode of the show and his very first emergency on screen which was him saving the baby. For what they had expected to be a series finale, it was a good callback and full circle ending.

•Buck's maturity

I also liked that this episode showed a lot of scenes where Buck is mature; i.e him trying to reason with Kameron and Connor to fix their marriage problems, his professionalism in delivering the baby (having learnt from the season 1 Full moon episode) and even how he responded in the bridge emergency.

Buck was really mature in this episode which is something reliving to see. This is especially due to majority of this show painting Buck as immature and impulsive. This show has a problem with consistently showing Buck's smartness and maturity. So, It's nice to see some growth even if it was just in the finale.

•Lucy

Ok I don't like Lucy, I'm sorry but I just don't. BUT I did like her role in the episode. As well as him congratulating Chim for his engagement. Her being the one to say 'Mayday, Mayday' was very reminiscent of the season 5 dispatch fire. Since, it is a finale, I really loved all the callbacks/potential callbacks they had.

•Buck, Eddie and dragging

Ok I just thought it was such a nice parallel to have Buck have to save Eddie by dragging him. It was a direct parallel to Buck having to drag Eddie under the ambulance which was SO GOOD.

•Marisol

Ok before anyone hates me I sort of already knew they wouldn't make Buddie canon. And while I really don't see the chemistry between Marisol and Eddie AT LEAST he has a new fresh love story where the girl and him are both really cute towards each other. Even though I think it'd be better to just leave him single, Marisol and him being sort of cute is a silver lining.

•Bobby and Athena

I'm not even going to elaborate on this other than THEY GOT THEIR CRUISE

Ok I think that's enough compliments. Let's get into the things that I believe could have been done better:

•Natalia

No. Just no. The whole beginning of the season set Buck up to be ok with being single just to take that away at the ending.

ALSO the fact that there are so many parallels between his story with Taylor and his story with Natalia, down to the couch, is just a hard NO.

She and Buck have no chemistry. She's pretty but she should've just left and not came back.

Buck should've been single at the end just to show that he really can be okay just being himself and he's accepted that he can find happiness by himself and knows that he is enough now. It would be so much more meaningful than this rushed love plot.

•Eddie and death

Ok in Death and Taxes Eddie talks about dying alone and it just NEVER GETS RESOLVED. They never talk about it again. Instead they rush him into this search for love like that'd fix anything. Buck and him should've just been single. Buck accepting he's enough and Eddie accepting he's fine dying alone as long as he could live every day to the fullest.

•Eddie and love

That man really threw Bobby's advice (and his own) out the window huh. First, he said himself it was a bad idea to date a person you saved to Buck in death and taxes, yet guess what he does at the end of the season. Second, Bobby told him not to look for it yet he WAS looking for it when he met Marisol again. Third, there was absolutely no chemistry or build-up between the two. They just saw each other and fell in love i guess.

I'm not a hardcore Buddie shipper but truly Buck is the ONLY person I would expect him to end up with. The parallels between things that have happened between Bathena and Buddie is just proof enough. Even moreso the talk at the grave at the end of Death and taxes.

•The symbolisms

WHAT WAS THE REASON. WHAT WAS THE REASON. What was the point of the couch theory, the blue-green couples, the red-blue just for it to amount to nothing. Even if you didn't want them to end up together, they could have still had the last ending scene be of them as a family together (Chris, Buck, Eddie).

Whether you believe they were queerbaiting or not, they were definitely baiting something with all the symbolisms surrounding Buck and Eddie.

•The lack of continuity

I feel like the issues present in the first half of season 6B (till like death and taxes) were never resolved. What happened to eddie and dying alone? What about Buck and not being able to fully process his death?

I get wanting a feel good ending but at least tie up loose ends. The finale could've been just as good without the unnecessary sudden add-on like Natalia and Marisol. I liked Kameron and Connor coming back but the rest felt like it came out of nowhere.

I wouldn't have minded a longer finale or just a finale that didn't include the unnecessary stuff. They could have had the Madney engagement but still address the issues they started the season with.

•The Pay It Forward part

This could be an entirely biased take but personally I think there could have been more of the 'Pay it forward' theme. The team could have been more critically injured causing Buck to have to take the role of actual interim captain. It could have been him repaying them for when they put their everything inti saving him. While he did have to do more, it didn't feel enough. The emergency itself felt like it was resolved too quickly and was rushed. Again, I think it would've been more impactful to have a longer, well-written finale ESPECIALLY if they were wrote it believing that it'd be a series finale. That said I am absolutely not telling writers how to do their job, they're the professionals here.

•Buck

Yes he gets his own point sorry not sorry. His arc felt incomplete. It really felt like they were leading up to a breakdown or a realisation of some sort yet nothing. They just wrap up his story with a new love interest and call it a day.

Like why not make him single at the end as a callback to the first episode of season 6 - he started alone and he's perfectly happy ending it alone.

Why not include a breakdown - everyone around him keeps reminding him he died and he keeps getting bothered by it. He doesn't even seem to fully process the impact of his own death. Let him feel his death instead of just forget about it and move on to the next girl.

Why not let him be interim captain for the bridge emergency? Let it be a parallel to when he wasn't ready and now where he is. He's had enough life experience and now he knows what to do. He can do it by himself.

Why not end it with him, chris and Eddie on Eddie's couch? Let it be a wrap up to the couch theory. Their family whether Buck and Eddie are romantically involved or not. Chris is his kid and that's all that matters. It would've been a nice transition of him looking at Chris fondly after having to give away what is biologically his child. He is content with living life how it is. He has found the meaning of happiness. He is fine.

Last mini point cause I totally could be wrong here but I swear they didn't ever introduce the kids that Hen and Karen were fostering (now possibly adopting) till the last episode. Tell me if I'm wrong.

TL;DR While I enjoyed the finale, it felt like it was rushed and a lot of things were left unfinished. A lot of problems were still unresolved at the end. It's a feel good ending but with a lot of missing plot points and red herrings throughout the season. That said this is just my personal amateur opinion and no one should take it to heart. It was still a good ending just not what I expected. Hopefully abc will tie up the loose ends and maybe give us a satisfactory conclusion to this really good show.

9-1-1 6x18 review

I did like it but it felt very rushed, the sneak peeks literally told the whole episode so I felt no worry in my gut that something bad would happen.

The fact they put out an SOS to all firehouse crews but then did it themselves also annoyed me.

I liked the birthing scene with Buck taking charge but it was so fast and it just felt like they were trying to leave everything in a happy place.

And now we are left with Buddie girlfriends again, I know the writers are aware of the Buddie movement but if they wanted to stop it then why keep taunting us with hopeful scenes (Buddie Poker Date)

I would have liked more injury fallout rather than skipping forward a month to tie the episode up.
